Morrissey's last U.S. tour was canceled prematurely due to what reps for Moz said was a "respiratory infection Morrissey contracted in Miami". "In the interest of [him] making a full recovery," they wrote, "all further touring plans have been halted." Morrissey claimed that his infection had been passed to him by opening act Kristeen Young, who had then decided to leave the tour. In response, Young released a statement denying the charges (she claims she had allergies, not a cold), and said that she was asked to leave. Acrimony ensued.
